I'm invested in the story and the characters, but I really started to feel dragged down by the fact that literally nothing goes right for literally anyone in this book. Many elaborate plans are made by multiple different characters, and many many times the goal that they want is snatched out of their hands in the final moments before their success, in some shocking twist. It makes for an exciting story, but it is also just vey miserable.
